Help Zubby with a gas fitter's skills: a septic backup
Zubby has a septic backup, and can't afford a licensed gas fitter to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In July an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my elderly mother. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $310 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed gas fitter who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $25.
The job should take about eight hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're a gas fitter and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Best of luck, Zubby. Hope you get there. Blessings.
Rooting for you, Zubby. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Best of luck, Zubby. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Kano
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Nizamabad donated after I showed her your page. Love from Nizamabad
Thanks for sharing this. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together.
Sending good thoughts, Zubby. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
Sending love, Zubby. This could happen to any of us.
Sending strength. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. God bless.
